Thanks Shannon. I've long suspected this is my core issue, but it's good to hear outside perspective. I guess I've been tip toeing around the issue. The thing is for me since I have that low self worth I tend to reject attempts to raise it.It's been a vicious cycle where I try to give myself validation but then because of the worthlessness I feel I don't deserve it. To be honest I probably haven't been diligent enough in reinforcing my own self worth. It's wavered between "nah you're over thinking this" to "why should you feel good about who you are?"
It's like it doesn't feel right to validate myself or my worth. I need to have a why. But intrinsic self worth doesn't really have a why, it just is. And I think that's why it's so hard to get myself on board.
